Phoenix Mountain Oolong

December 29, 2017 10:14

Phoenix Mountain Oolong, from Phoenix Mtn in Guangdong province, is composed of dark, long, sinewy leaves. When steeped, this oolong has tremendous floral aroma and a complex flavor with sweet, buttery, fruity (apple) notes and a wonderful silky/creamy texture. One of the best teas of the year. Very limited production.

Our supplier has two other names for this oolong: Ya She Xiang which roughly translates as fragrant bud. He also told us this tea is known as Duck Shit Oolong.
